The SEC has still not really decided how they are

There are thousands of ICOs now running on Ethereum and most are cash grabs. Creating a simple ICO smart contract on the Ethereum network is not that difficult. Building a blockchain that will solve real world problems is extremely difficult. Outside of Bitcoin being used a as store of value, Ethereum for launching ICOS, there are only a few other functioning blockchains (Steems, Bitshares) and this is with a current 650 billion market cap and growing quickly.

Blockchains require Open Source support for validating nodes for security. Extremely technical stuff here. ICO is nothing more than an Ethereum based smart contract that any decent programmer can develop. As I said most are cash grabs. The good ones have the support of the well known developers in the community: Vitalik buterin, Dan Larimer, Charlie lee, Roger Ver, etc. etc.

This is my last post here as I respect all of you and don't want to do any harm to any of you.. My shares are for sale for anyone who wants them.
I am not sure how we can transfer them but we can figure that out. I have a lot of shares and I will sell them for .0005 to the first bidder. Send me a PM if you are interested and we will figure out how to transfer them.
Good luck all. I hope somehow this thing works out for everybody.
